NOTD - L'Oreal Raven's Strength (Project Runway Collection)

Feb 11, 2012

Ok, this NOTD is so not appropriate for the upcoming Valentine's day, but I have been itching to try on these dark jewel toned polishes from my recent haul. ;)

L'Oreal Raven's Strength (from "Project Runway Collection")

I would say this is a deep charcoal grey shimmer.
There is a good amount of blue and green thrown in, which makes this color more wearable.
It reminds me of Chanel Black Pearl a little bit. (not a close dupe, though)
Dark colors with shimmer like this could make your skin look drier than what it is, so frequent moisturizing is a must. ;)

As for the polish itself, I think the formula has improved in a great deal compared to the last L'Oreal polish I had. (That was 10 years ago, btw.)
The brush is slightly wider (not as wide as OPI prowide brush) that was quite workable although I thought it was a little stiff.

your nails look gorgeous! they just look so healthy and perfect. haha it's funny I've been inspired to wear vampy shades nowadays too- just looking at my nail polish collection and realising how little love my dark shades have been getting :P I like the second one a lot- it's not that dark and more grey!

well your bang looked great in the pictures! having options like that is always great. ;)yeah i love dark colors on short trimmed nails. they practically go with many different makeup and oufit looks. :D

Gosh you apply your polish so well!! Looks very professionally done. Also your nails are so perfect!The colour is really nice, i can see the sparkle! The quality looks good too, glad it has improved! xX
